So'.diers,-_The occurrences at 111oreliahWeelated the fac tion of Arragon to such a degree that they have detached forces which have invaded Castille, the province wherein aro your parents, brothers, your little or large fortunes. I cannot suffer it to endure such an outrage, or to become the enemy's prey. Deeming me intent upon the conquest of Estella, and perhaps filled with a confidence inspired by machiavelian and occult intrigues, our enemies have thought that they could carry the war upon your flanks, intercept the communications, cover with mourning the classic land of liberty, that country where the Carlist banner never could float. They had hoped to act with impunity in a land which lately witnessed their opprobrium, when a strong expedition was annihilated by your heroic efforts and constancy ; but ever vigilant and ready to frustrate the open or occult designs of our enemies, I have not lost sight of one of my duties; I now give a preference to the one which most deeply concerns the maintenance of the Throne of our innocent Qnecn, under the Government of the immortal Christina, and the Constitution we have sworn to.

The arrangements for the purchase of the Freehold of Abney.

While this Society enables a person to provide for his family after lids death, it also affords the power of making provision for himself during annuities, either immediate, deferred, or survivor-hip life, er Every member assured for the whole term of life, whose policy v p b . y graltinr shall have existed three years, will be entitled to a proportional share of the quinquennial profits, which may be applied either by additions t• their respective policies, or in reduction of the pre miums thereafter to become payable.

N.B.—A Committee of Directors, attended by a medical officer, sit at tke Company's house every Tuesday, from Twelve to Two o'clock, to grant Assurances, but one Director is daily in attend ance to render every facility to those to whom despatch may be an object. GREAT ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY THE UNITED KINGDOM, LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY, Watorloo-plats, Pall-mall, and 2, Charlotte-row, Mansian- house , London. This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only requires, when an Insurance is for the whole period o f life, one half of the very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five years after the slate of the Policy, the other half may remain, subject to the pay mint of interest at 5 per cent. 'annually, to be deducted aV death, er may previously be paid off at convenience. It obviously becomes euy fir a person of very moderate income to secure, by this ar rangement, a provision for his family ; and should he at any time after effecting the insurance succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, be may relinquish his policy, having only paid one half the premiums for the first five years, instead if the whole, as in all other Com panies. Thus a man if 25 years old may, by an annual payment of 23/. 16s. 3d. for the first five years, secure to his widow and chil dren at his death payment of no less than 3,000/., subject only to the deduction of 144/. Is. 3d , being the amount of premium un paid. This Company holds out, in various other respects, great inducements to the public. When such facilities are afforded, it is clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed of a for tune, but of as income, however moderate, to insure his life for a sum which may yield a comfortable provision for his family.

PROSPECTUS OF " THE ERA," A Weekly Journal of News, Politics, Commerce. I n d us t ry, a r e cl earnt e sharpthrae o t y n eS. and Sunday, the willEt h ßb e Ae 3 sw O u t is h l cl e o hp f et ip S brl e ie p o ttoee printed b oe i e on r ;fi iodneisvtiadnetd, paper,pa tred and i le pleasure sou . Manners, Literature, Arts, and Sciences, to be printed and p u bli s h ed distinct sheets, each as large as a London Evening Paper. 11. The matter contained in this ample space will be classified under various heads, such as News—Politics—Literature, &c . , so as to enable the reader to find at once the kind of amusement or information he seeks. Under the head of " News" will be found every thing of popular interest, whether foreign or domestic, that has transpired during the week ; with the frequent addition of information accessible only to this Paper. ' The department of " Politics" will be distinguished by reason and moderation, not by ranbour and malevolence. It will not become subservient to any clique. The Tories, Whigs, and Ra dicals, have each their peculiar organs already ; and it will be the province of THE ERA to watch their conflicting struggles, and in terpose a warning voice when public opinion seems likely to be be trayed into lending itself to mere party purposes. In the space devoted to Commerce and Industry will be traced, week by the week, the position of this great trading and manufac turing Country, both as regards her internal prosperity, and her foreign relations. It will comprise not only statistical tables, bat original articles on the policy and prospects of the nation. In this department will come in the state of the Markets and Shipping In telligence, up to the latest moment possible. The department of Manners will be novel and comprehensive in its arrangements. It will present an a.necdotical history of the vir tues, vices, crimes, follies, and fancies, of the people of all classes. Nothing will escape its research, from a sermon to a song, from a murder to a lampoon. The courts of justice—the police offices— the ball-room—the soiree—the masquerade—all will be ransacked for subjects of interest or mirth. Even the changes of dress and fashion will be noted as carefully as in another department the re volutions of empires; and an important place will be allotted to Sporting Intelligence of all kinds. The remaining department will contain a more elaborate sketch of the progress of Literature, Art, and Science, in England, than has yet been attempted in a general newspaper : comprising every thing of interest and amusement that has hitherto been found only in the " Literary Journals." 111. THE ERA being the property of the Licensed Victuallers of England, will devote special attention to the interests of that body. The profits of the Paper will be devoted to the purpose of increasing the funds of those two excellent institutions, the Li censed Victuallers' School, in Kennington-lane, and the Asylum, in the Kent-road, London, and at the rame time extend, in just roportions, to the provincial towns, the advantages derived by the Aletropolitan trade from the " Morning Advertiser," in the insti tution of establishments of charity and education ; while the public importance of the Journal will also, it is hoped, have the effect of raising the whole body in public estimation. It will liberate from one-sided views, and narrow prejudices, the question s that affect their trading interests, and place their business in its true position, i as the necessary concomitant of civ ilization, g rowin g only d th e n t h e growth of industry, and flourishing onl y in the prosperity _ people. Connected with such obj ects, it will be the business of üblic this Journal to assist the friends of public morals and p health, and the well-wishers of the Revenue, in their attempts to convince the Legislature of the singul ar and dangerous mistake they committed in passing what is common l y called the Beer -s hop Bill. IV. But the public, it is admitted , have no c oncern with the na ture . of the Proprietory of the Paper, further than that it guarantees its es tablishment on a scale, and with a certainty of continuance; alto gether unattainable by a private speculation. Th e first talenottoant the country will assist in its production, directed by a gentl well known in the literary world. The various g reat q uestions that occupy the public mind will be treated, not in a sp irit of par tisanship, but with calmness and deliberation. The g rand objec t, it is repeated, will be, not to add to the clamour of partie s, but. to prevent the people from being bewildered and deluded by the noisee. The present state of the Poor-laws, for instance, will receive th most anxious examination ; but instead of joining in the wild out cry en one side or other, the business of THE ERA will be to T- Vestleate facts, and lay the whole question fairly before the public. But, with regard to another class. of subjects, on which there can be no dispute as to facts, the advocacy of this Jourual will be direct, bold, and unwearied. Among the greatest of these may be mentioned the questio n o f N a ti ona l Education; and, in connection with the intellectual progress of the people, that of the gradual Extension and Equalisation of the Suffrage. It may he added that the condition of the Naval and Military Services will receive the minute investigation it demands. All such su bj ec t s —including th e various Irish questi ons , th e quest i on of Corn Laws, Vote by Bal lot, Duration of the Sittings of Parliament, &c. &c., will be tem perately discussed, with the purpose neither of lulling nor exciting the public mind, but of disseminating sound practical information, and promoting calm, mode ra t e , an d en li g h tene d v i ews . V. THE ERA will be published in London every Saturday, in time for transmission to the country by the evening mails ; and a Second Edition, bringing down the intelligence to the latestminu te possible, will appear every Sunday morning, for circulation in the Metropolis.

The Proprietors, therefore, feel called upon to caution their friends against the purchase of such factitious compounds, under the idea of their being the natu ral productions of the Spa Waters, the medical effects of which they vainly attempt to imitate.

Hi: Excellency the General-in-Chief is informed that the Pretender's agents are multiplying their efforts towards seduc ing the loyalty of the brave soldiers of the army. Convinced of the impotency of their arms, they seek in perfidy and cun ning the means denied them by the injustice of their cause. The General's solicitude for the honour of the army obliges him both to give this warning and to adopt such measures as may stop and chastise such as might suffer themselves to be tampered with. His Excellency therefore orders the fol lowing :- 1. Any individual of the army, to whatever class he may belong, who, after the present publication, shall desert to the enemy, or to any other point, shall be forthwith shot, without any other process than a verbal Court-Martial to ascertain the cffenco. 2. The above shall apply to any soldier who, having de serted, shall be made prisoner of war. 3. All that shall conceal a deserter, of whatever sex or con dition they be, or that shall excite the soldiers to desert, shall be shot without any other than the aforesaid process. If such individuals betake themsel►es to flight, their property shall be confiscated and applied to the wants of the army. 4. The present order shall be read to all the Companies three days together. (Signed) TENS, Brigadier, Ad interim Head of the Staff. Lodosa, Sept. 3, 1838. PORTUGAL. Ltsnoti, SEPT. 18.—Last Sunday being the first birth day (the 16th instant) of the young infant Prince Dom Pesto D'Alcantara, the batteries, as well as the shipping of all th e friendly Powers in the Tagus, fired the usual Royal salutes, and their Nhjestios held a levee at the Adjuda Palace, which was very numerously attended. The second scrutiny for the election of the ten Senators and twenty-two Deputies, still wanting for the Lisbon district, commenced on the 16th instant, but we shall not be able to communicate the result until four or five days more elapse ; it is, however, very pleasing to witness the perfect order un der which the whole process is going through, and we have every reason to indulge the hope that the public tranquillity will in no ways be disturbed, be what will the result. In consequence of near two thousand individuals, mostly ultra-Lib,rals, having claimed their right of voting at the second scrutiny, although they had been excluded from doing so at the first because their names were not on the parish books, the Alilister for the Home Department issued a de cree, unde r the 14th instant, to the effect that, according to the law of the 9th of April last, those whose names were not on the parish books, should have submitted their claims to have them inserted within the time therein fixed—that it eras new too late. Fresh elections are going to take place of Guimamens. The little village of Almada, on the opposite side of the river, wits kept in constant alarm on the evening of the 11th irstant, by the report that Baida, the Miguelite chief, was at the Monte de Caparica, with fifty cavalry, intending to invade the place. Troops and National Guards were sent in all di rections, when it was found out that no such guerillas had been there ; it was a party of about twenty young men who fled fiom their respeeti‘e homes in order to avoid being included in the present draft of men for the army ; they have each dis persed in different directions. The said Baida was on the 12th instant at Alvito, where, ,having surprised the Lieut.-Colonel of the Nati ma! Guard while in his bed, he compelled him to go along with his men, pointing out the houses of the respective National Guards, about fifty-five of whom were deprived of their arms and uniforms; and, it is further stated, that on finding that one of his men had robbed a moult, named Father Ivaco de Carmo, of two moidores, he caused the money to he re turned, and the fellow to be severely punished in the same town. It is reported, but I very much doubt it, that young Remcchido has captured a lieutenant of the s;h cavalry, and caused him to be shot. A Royal dec ree h as b een i ssue d to t h e e ff ect t h at a ll t h e public offices are to be closed on the three first days of the Queen's confinement, as well as on that of the christening of the Royal infant. General illuminations a-e to take place likewise. That good and worthy man, Colonel Serpa Pinto, died at his native place, near Penhafiel, the other day. He had already been returned a Deputy to the ensuing Cortes. The-Spanish Minister at this Court is now granting pass ports, to return to Spain, to all the Carlist prisoners who have been detained here, aver since the Evora Monte convention, provided, however, that they stn a declaration to the effect that they will not again join Don Carlos's ranks during the campaign.

If the presence of Louis Napoleon in Switzerland is a just cause of uneasiness for France, it will become every day more and more a. cause of embarrassment and danger for that country even, whose honour and independence are, it is said, interested in the protection of the foreigners who establish there the seat of their intrigues. As all the world k nows what to think of the quality of a Swiss citizen —the grand argument of the defenders of Louis Napoleon—the question, the true question is now, will Switzerland consent t o b ecome a place of refuge for all promoters of disorder, whether Swiss citizens or not? It is incredible that a people so sagacious and so celebrated for good sense as is the Swiss nat . ° should expose itself, for merely a simple subtilty of law, to all the consequences of a collision with France. Either Switzerland will accede to the demand of France, and expel Louis Bona parte, or Switzerland may be certain that before long her territory will become the rendezvous of all who have any plots to carry on against the neighbouring states. This is not a simple conjecture en our part. We can state with confi dence that the Italian refugees, Mazini, and the two (bro thers) Rufini, whose presence in Switzerland orcisioned the conch/sum of the month of August, 1836, are already re turned to this country. On the other band it seems not less certain that the most celebrated of contumaces of the month of April (1834) hare formed the proj 'et (if they have not already executed it) of assembling in Switzerland, and of establishing there a permanent Committee. According to custom this statement will, no doubt, be stoutly denied in France, but the truth of it will nevertheless be very shortly apparent. It is to be hoped that these facts are (as we must r , peat) only the inevitable consequences of the resistance which the demand of the French Government has met with, and will contribute to enlighten all the wise, and all the friends of peace in Switzerland. If only the hope of a refusal on the part of the Helvetic Diet has already drawn towai di this country the attention and pro jects of all men whose turbulent spirits has given them in Europe a sad celebrity, what will the refusal itself produce ? As to ourselves, we are far from having lost the confidence which we always had in the good sense and spirit of justice which have ever formed the character of the Swiss station. The justice of our cause is so evident, that g it ua a r pr v a i r ri s g impassible t o us t h at f or the s i mple p l easure of with on o of ol.lost, end surct.t allies Switzerlan( should h o ld t responsible , for a man who is oonn - d t with her by no ser i ous tie. We are conv i nce d , t h a t after t a ii. little more noise, p er h aps, F rance w ill fi n i s h by o btaining sa ,faction without having occasion to resort to s 'filief 4,tirpo - We/ ever, because Switzerland is now deficient in that coit4a34l which she has always displayed in the defence of her rights and independence, when they were really menaced, but b' cause Switzerland is just. How much honest men must regret, therefore, that a little too much national sensibility should have brought on an inconsiderate opposition to the demand o: the French Government, if hereafter new intrigues on the part of the Pretender of Strasburg should—we will not say compromise seriously the tranquillity and prosperity of France—we a ill not say excite civil war, for that appears to us impossible, at .d it is not that which the French Government fears—but merely have .the effect of seducing some misguided persons, and of inviving them in senseless plots—of exposing them to the terrible pc nalties which the law awards to treason and insurrection. When Louis Napoleon attempted his enterprise at Strasburg, which might have been bloody, was he not the gust of Swit zerland ? Had he not been honoured with the title of Swiss citizen ? What regard has he had of the engagement with ; the country which had received and adopted him with so much generosity? Did he fear to compromise Switzerland ? Does he feel himself bound by the tics of friendship and amity which have existed so long between the two countries, end which it is their mutual interest to maintain ? Has he cared for the interest of Swiss commerce, which suffers no less than ours from the internal troubles of France ? What good and true Swiss citizen—what member of the Diet is there, who can assure himself that, in voting for Louis Napoleon, he does not render himself personally responsible for the fatal denouement of some new conspiracy, and of all its consequences? French Government, however, will take its measures in all events. The affair is too serious nut to render it expedient to provide for every contingency, even a refusal. Orders have been given to form battalions of war without delay at Lyons, Be sac can, and &fort. We cannot repeat too frequently to Switzerland that our journals deceive her respecting the state of public opinion and the disposition of the Government. The opposition Press has treated this affair as it treats all others, in i:s own narrow and partial point of view, as unmindful,of the interests of Switzerland as of those of France, and seeking merely a subject of declamation against the Minister. Public opinien does no/ admitthat the Pretender• of Strasburg should, by merely having pa4sed the frontier, have suddenly become a simple Swiss citizen, and a good bourgeois of Obeistrass, and an honest and peaceable republican of the canton of Thu ringovia. The pamphlet, which has been the subject of a recent trial in the Chamber of Peers, has so much outraged public opinion that nobody can be induced to believe in the pacific dispositions and modest resignation of the amnesty which they are so fearful rnhyl)e forgotten in Fiance. The French Government will not recoil. It does not %Nish to frighten Switzerland nor to humiliate her. It does not desire to interfere with the inteior affairs, but it has the right and it is its duty to defend itself when attacked; and the protection with which Louis Napoleon only covers himself that he may be free to intrigue in the garrisons of our frontier towns is an at tack. We again ask all sensible and honest men of Switzer.. land what interest can the French Government have in humi liating their country? Is not Switzerland the rampart of France ? Is it not important to ourselves that all Europe should know that the Swiss people are ever' ready to cause their honour and independence to be respected ? Is it pos sible, without positive insanity, that France should enter tain the idea or the wish to humiliate a brave, loyal, and faithful nation? Are we not neighbours? Are we not allies ? Are not all our interests mingled by our daily in tercourse? Where else should we seek for new alliances and friends if we were wantonly to break the oldest, the most na tural, and the most certain ? France has not (to speak pro perly) a glorious remembrance which is not in common with Switzerland. Our blood has been shed on the same fields of bat tle ; and yet it is suggested that the French Government has formed the project of debasing Switzerland —that is to say, of annihilating it. Switzerland will indeed be hu miliated when she acknowledges that which is obvious to all the world, that Louis Napoleon never seriously believed himself a citizen and subject of Switzerland. What France demands from Switzerland is what she would demand, under similar circumstances, from every State whose frontier adjoins her's; she would demand it from Bavaria, from Prussia, from Wurtemburg, or from the Duchy of Baden. That which France demands of Swit zerland, she would grant to Switzerland should our fron tiers serve as an advanced post to those intriguers whose plots should threaten or trouble the repose, the liberty, or the Constitution of Switzerland. The right is reciprocal ; France does not say to Switzerland, " Expel Louis Napoleon because I wish it, and because I am the stronger ; expel him be cause I have an army of 500,000 men—my bayonets are my arguments." France appeals to a principle acknow ledged by all civilized nations, and to which they submit, be cause they have an equal and mutual interest in causing it to respected by each other. Great or small s strong or weak, it is the guarantee of their safety. To-day France claims the application of it ; to-morrow a kingdom, a republic, a simple independent town may require of France to grant the benefit of the same principle, and France will accede to it without thinking herself humbled. The right of hospitality" is a venerable and great right. France has often exercised it. Swuz , rland exercises it with a generosity which does her honour. But this right, like all others, has a limit. It must not become a source of danger and ruin to its neighbours. We acknowledge without hesitation that a war between France and Switzerland would be a misfortune, not for Swit zerland alone. There might be, however, a greater misfor tune for France—a misfortune to which she will never submit —and that is, to demand justice and to fail in obtaining it. RUSSIA AND ENGLAND IN THE EAST. PosEN, Are. 28.—However hermetically Russia may seal its frontiers, it cannot hinder us feom obtaining here occa sionally from the interior, more particular accounts of its rela tions, and gaining insight into its policy. The politique pa cifique, as it is styled, which Count Stroganoff gave as a toast in London, looks almost like irony, because it becomes more and more evident that Russia and England have for some time carried on war with each other. The English secretly assist the rebellious Circassians so ef fectually that they are always able to continue the contest, f n g since means to have carry subdued on regularth e which is th e more sensibly felt by the Russians, as they would lo warfare, mount but who ainee7;ho no are v‘ s destitute ee o them selves impeded in their enterprizes beyond the Caucasus by an ever-watchful, though by no means powerful, enemy in their rear. On the other hand, Russia is assem bling considerable fo-ces in the south of the empire, the twofold object of which is no longer a secret, for while one part holds itself in readiness to go to Asia Minor to support the Turks, large bodies of troops further to the east are to march to the south, which (though the news given in English journals of their arrival at Teheran is probably premature, only Russian artillery,nen having yet been sent to that place) takes a direction which opens to them the way to the most vulnerable point of the British powsr. It is besides, not im probable that the Russians may prefer the commercial route by way of Rhiva, with which they are acquainted, to that through Iran, for the former is shorter, less dangerous, and more natural for the projects of Russia. England is well aware of her weakness in India, and knows that the posses sion of this gigantic limb by the dwarf European body can be but transitory, for as soon as the maxim divide et impera ceases to bear its ',chit, that is, as soon as the nations of India become sensible of their tree interests, and conse quently considering the distance of the mother country, and the great population of flindoetan, the empire of the Eng lish in Southern Asia is at an end. On the other hand, Russia knows its vocation, and that the regeneration of Asia can only proceed from her. Thence the reciprocal jealousy of the two nations, and especially England's anxiously watching every step that Russia takes or may take ; it sees with alarm ing apprehension the Russian colossus advance slowly indeed, but surely, to put an end to its unnatural supremacy in India. The rest of Europe looks on this conflict with composure, and even with secret joy, for on the one side the sympathy of the Continent for England is no where great and sincere, and, on the other hand, it must be satisfactory to Russia diverted from the west to the east. If under existing circumstances the tranquillity of Europe is not interrupted, the sole reaso probably is, that Russia does not see occasion to act offen sively, but, prepared and wishing for the combat, waits till some other hand first takes the sword to cut the Gordian knot of the policy of the East. Lord Palmerston evidently awaits the first cannon-shot, for though not very clear-sighted, he yet perceives the unavoid ableness of this combat, which he probably only seeks to put off; because he is aware of his own incapacity to guide the helm of England in a time of crisis. The Bri tish political edifice is too artificially put together tobe kept in proper order except by artificial means, the morality of vslaiclz, under these circumstances, must not be too scrupulously thought of. Great Britain may thank its weak Minis ters that since the fall of Napoleon it has gradually declined in its political importance. Had they continued in the course of their great predecessors, proud England would have re mained sole sovereign of the seas, and would have no reason to fear in the long run any nation upon earth. It is true that its political consequence must not be too strait laced (as was seen before Copenhagen), but they must soon, without direct occasion, take the first step, and destroy at the onset every foreign naval power. The most favourable moment is now per haps past, for France, Russia, and North America rossess fleets which may be, indeed, defeated, but cannot be annihilated. Eng'and, too, ought long since to have recognised the Pasha of Egypt as an independent Sovereign, in order to gain a pow erful and able ally in the East, whose well-trained armies might be opposed to the projects of Russia. From the continental Powers Russia has at pres e nt no thi ng t o f ear , for its p o licy is of similar in its main outlines to that of the great ,Pl,) tirin wers l v on Eastern Europe, and Louis Philipp e is not seated so The Euxino his throne as to venture a war a nd its chances. and the Baltic may b e i n a cer t a in sense ssn that the c losed, and it is posslle that it was net m er ely for his suamusement and guaran. Emperor Nicholas made a voyage to Stockholm teed the succession to Prince Oscar. between Turkey (elready so depen dent The misunderstanding on Russia) and its too powerful vassal, the Pasha o f Ee v pt, must soon come to an iesue. The status quo cannot possibly continue. The neces sity Lebanon and Anti-Lebanon has probably hitherto e of reducing the Drus , e te s d i the Pasha from proclaiming his : • re'et independence.
